Designed to operate at the behest of and for the benefit of a non-insurance parent owner-company or group, the captive structures provide reduced cost coverage, direct access to reinsurers, provision of broad or otherwise unavailable coverage, improved cash flow, and improved risk retention.
While recent IRS rulings have made captive insurance arrangements somewhat trickier, the associated benefits continue to outweigh their negative aspects. Not only can CB&H determine whether a captive insurance arrangement creates a more tax-efficient economic environment for your corporation, but we can also further assist you in the formation, funding, and facilitation of your captive structure.
